A person sketches on a piece of paper at an art activity table, surrounded by drawing supplies, including pencils and an eraser. The sketch appears to be of a child sitting at a table. In the background, a display of limes and oranges is set on a black cloth, and a sign in Spanish reads "Arte para todas las edades," indicating an all-ages art activity.

Open to all ages

Join us for a drop-in figure drawing session inspired by the dynamic movements of Alvin Ailey! Capture the grace and energy of the human form by sketching from live models who are also dancers from Ailey Extension. Take time for close looking and let the power of the movement inspire you—whether to create on paper or perhaps through your own dance.
